The night Seth Thorne had his accident.
A little after nine, the servants clocked out one after another and went back to their rooms.
A thin, frail-looking woman slipped out of her room, sneaking around. She checked the surroundings, and when she saw no one was there, she slipped into the kitchen.
She must have studied the layout after coming to the Thorne family's house. As soon as she entered the kitchen, she knew there were cameras, so she deliberately avoided them, kept her back to them, and it was unclear what she was fiddling with in her hands.
But you could see her making that pot of tea.
So after all these days, no one suspected this widow of unknown origin.
Trying to find the culprit, Tiana Thorne said, "Where's that widow? Her room."
"Miss, the widow's room is already empty. Ever since Master had his accident, the widow ran off too. We were just about to bring this up—she didn't even come to collect her wages."
This was premeditated.
